Challenging project

I got to play a little in the Splitcoaststampers Dare to Get Dirty challenges, and made a project that worked for quite a few of them! Jami challenged us to use blue and embellishments, Bonnie wanted wings, Laurie wanted ribbon, Krystie clear things, and Tracy wanted bags. I think I got ’em all in with one project. The only thing I *didn’t* get in was treats for the inside to make it fit Carole‘s challenge. I went to check my stash, and it’s all gone. . . I’ll bet I have little critters (read: kids home for the summer!) who’ve been snacking on my stuff!

The box started out as a 12″ x 12″ sheet of screen printed acetate from Hambly. The blue matches SU!’s Bermuda Bay perfectly. I scored to create a 2″ x 3″ box with no top or bottom, and then scored and scalloped some cardstock to make the bottom. I very loosely followed the directions here. The top is just pinched together and covered with a little cardstock tent, and the ribbon was threaded through holes I punched through all the layers. For supplies, click here.
I hope y’all are all enjoying the challenges. From the looks of the gallery, you sure are! I can’t wait to go back and get a better look this weekend. Thanks SO much for supporting the site with your Fan Club memberships, and for playing along in the challenges this week!

OHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!! I’ve been trying to stay out of the DTGD gallery until my projects are done….I created a clear box too (had to fill mine with chocolate chips…the only “goodies” I had left!!) Seeing your box makes me realize why my creations are on a different level of the DD gals!! This is GORGEOUS!!
